Book of Museum
3/5 
4.5/5 This is the latest book-themed slot machine released by leading game provider GameArt. The game is set in one of the oldest archaeological museums of Egypt, which is a holder of one of the world’s most prolific collections of Pharaonic antiquities.
Built across 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines, this game comes with a few intriguing features, including a Bonus Game with a Risk It option and Mystery Portal Stack symbols.
If you love book online slot games, this latest instalment also enjoys another often explored theme, that of Ancient Egypt.
As such, the game does not come packed with too many features or too many paylines. The biggest win generated in this game is that of 500x your stake. However, the design of the game is what sets this game apart.
If you are used to Play’n GO’s Rich Wilde series, then this game is up your alley. Everything has been intricately designed to high standards. We would go as far as to say that this game is of a much higher standard and quality.
The lowest paying symbols in this game include the bird, the scarab, the sphinx and the eye of Ra. On the other hand, the highest paying symbols are the adventurer, the Pharoah, the Anubus statues, museum tickets and the no photo sign symbols.

Book of Museum free spins
To enter the free spins bonus round, you must land three or more scatter/wild symbols anywhere on the reels. When this happens, players will be presented with four canopic jars. Each one of these jars has various rewards hidden within.
Once the player enters the bonus game, they have the option to either play out the free spins or to risk it and go back to the base game.
Players who access the free spins via the Risk It feature will see some symbols transform into a more ‘adventurous’ style. By going for the Risk It option, you can be awarded either 3x multipliers, 3 additional free spins or a combination of both. There is still the chance of losing access entirely to the free spins.
If you opt to enter the free spins bonus round, there will be 8 of them awaiting you. In this round, Mystery Portal Stacks are also nudged to take over the reel. These will stay in place for the duration of the round.
Book of Museum bonus features
Book of Museum does not come choc-a-block with features, but players can still take advantage of a few perks:
Wilds
The Wild acts as a Scatter symbol in this online slot game. As always, it helps to create winning combinations by substituting itself with other symbols.
Mystery Portal
The Mystery Portal is essentially a stacked symbol, and if it lands on three reels or more, it will be nudged and thus available on all columns. The Mystery Portal can furthermore transform into a random symbol, which is already active on a payline.
Buy Bonus
If you want to skip the base game and head straight into the free spins bonus round, you can pay your entry.

It is not yet known what the payout percentage or volatility this online slot game will have.
Verdict
The Ancient Egypt theme has been well explored by several software game developers. It is clearly a theme that works as it still attracts players. Book of Museum seems to bring a fresh breath of air into the genre.
No one can doubt that the designs and the graphics of this game have not been stupendously done. The main issue with this game is that there are not enough features to keep players pinned to their seats.
Sure, the free spins bonus round and the Risk It features are rewarding, but there is not much else going on, especially in the base game. Furthermore, the maximum payout of 500x your stake is on the smaller side.
The bet ranges are ideal for low rollers, but the £100 maximum bet is probably not high enough for high rollers.
If we take a payout percentage on average at around the 96% mark, this game could be quite a promising hit in the near future.
It all remains to be seen.
